Western Cape police arrested a 37-year-old man at the Cape Town International Airport on Tuesday, for being in possession of drugs with an estimated street value of R2.4million.
The police’s Joseph Swartbooi said officers confiscated four kilograms of cocaine packed in chocolate wrappings hidden in the traveler's luggage.
‘’The members were strategically placed to profile and
searched passengers disembarking from an International flight from Dubai just
before midday.’’
‘’Amidst the hustle and bustle, they kept their sights focused
and conducted intense searches. Their mandate was fulfilled when they
confiscated 4 kg of cocaine wrapped in chocolate wrappings hidden in the luggage
of one of the passengers,’’ added Warrant Officer, Joseph Swartbooi.
Once charged, the suspect will make a court appearance in
the Bellville Magistrate court on the mentioned charge.
